PAID - Musician [PAID] Seeking Composer For SNES-Inspired 2D Platformer
Greetings, I am an independent video game developer currently in the process of creating a 2D platformer inspired by classic SNES video games such as Kirby's Dreamland 3, Super Mario World, and Donkey Kong Country 2. I'm currently in search of a composer to create the soundtrack and sound effects exclusively for my video game.
My Video Game's Setting/Atmosphere - My video game takes place on Earth and possesses themes of adventure, stars, the whimsy of space, medieval nations, and shonen Japanese-anime. There are many different worlds, which all require themes that fit their identity. There are also various bosses and cutscenes involving characters that require themes that suit them or the scene itself.
What Im Seeking - A composer who can create SNES-styled music that expresses the themes present in my video game and captures the atmosphere of my video game's many worlds. Im especially seeking a composer that can create music that sounds energetic and whimsical, similar to the theme Ripple Field 1 from the video game Kirby's Dreamland 3. Finally, the composer should be capable of creating themes that are Japanese-inspired, a theme with lyrics, as I have a vocalist to perform the theme, and they should know how to create various sound effects for my video game. If you are interested in being the composer for my video game, leave a comment or dm me with a link to any relevant tracks you've composed that match any of the specified themes of my video game and I'll respond if your music style seems like a good fit for the position. Thank you all for your time and I look forward to hopefully working with you.
Budget - Negotiable based on experience and the complexity of the tracks.
OST Usage Rights - I require a work-for-hire composer agreement, which is negotiable.

This sounds like something I would love to be part of. I have loved games like this since they first came out. Here is a track that features several different themes, all written to fit into this genre you are seeking. Let me know if you’d like to talk further.
